   Sheriff?s Office Declines to Book First Person Arrested by Portland   
   Police for Violating City?s Camping Rules   
      
   The sheriff?s office says it?s not booking people who are arrested for   
   violating city ordinances.   
      
   "Last Friday morning, the Portland Police Bureau made its first arrest   
   under the city?s new time, place and manner rules, which restrict   
   camping in public rights of way. Officers arrested a man in Northeast   
   Portland who allegedly refused repeated offers of a shelter bed or stay   
   at a tiny home.   
      
   But when officers transported the man to the Multnomah County Detention   
   Center downtown, sheriff?s office personnel who book suspects declined   
   to process him.   
      
   A spokesman for the sheriff?s office, Deputy John Plock, says that?s   
   because the county jail does not book people who are arrested for   
   violating city ordinances?just those arrested for felonies or   
   misdemeanor offenses codified in Oregon Revised Statutes. In other   
   words, the sheriff?s staff books people arrested for violating state   
   laws but not city rules."

      This is a little something you can play with. With all the   
   interesting things going on in the world, you guys still manage to be   
   boring.
